Unlocking the shrine: the Dive Ceremony
- Talk to the Steward Construct. Drop to the base of Bravery Island and find it.
- Start the ceremony. Tell it you are ready and you are placed at the very top of the island. Examine the terminal, then jump from the cliff edge where the first green ring hangs.
- Hit every ring. Green rings appear in the air as you fall. Pass through all of them.
- Activate the shrine. Simosiwak Shrine appears; examine the terminal in front of it to open it.

Step-by-step solution
Simosiwak Shrine is two trials in one: a skydiving accuracy test to make the shrine appear, then a Proving Grounds fought in the dark.
1. Gear up in the dark room
Take the entrance gear. The shrine confiscates your inventory. Grab everything on your left before the dark room.
Left for the stick and shield. In the dark room turn left and keep going until you reach the Long Stick and Old Wooden Shield.
Right for the light. Back to the entrance and go right this time, toward the light pillar. Pick up the glowing shield on the floor near it. Hold it up and it lights your way.
Up the stairs on the left. With everything collected, turn left and head for the light at the top of the stairs.
2. Defeat the three Constructs
First Construct. Beat the Construct on top of the stairs and take its loot. Then go toward the far end of the room where the altar is, drop off the platform and fuse the Flame Emitter in the right-hand corner to your weapon.
Second Construct. Head the opposite way from the altar door and beat the Construct patrolling the center of the maze.
Third Construct. Face the altar door again, go up the stairs on your left and beat the Construct there. A second Flame Emitter sits by one of the pillars if your weapons have broken.
3. Chest and altar
Altar. With all three down, enter the altar room, open the chest for a Bright Elixir, and take the Light of Blessing.
